Are you sure that the cell number isn’t your user name?  There should still be an actual GHIN number.  If not, it’s completely different from what I’ve seen anywhere else, which seems unlikely since GHIN is a USGA product used nationally.

Sent my GHIN info to Iacas as I didn't want to post up my cell number in the thread really. Our club is setup as "EClub West TN" since it's not through a course. But yeah, my actual GHIN number is my cell number. My son's is the same way. Been like this for years because when I first started this, my home course did not offer the service.

Interesting, we learn something new all the time.  @TN94z, I know that my GHIN number is 7 digits, is yours the full 10-digit phone number?

Mine is 8, Dave.

Members of my eClub have different length numbers too.

Our numbers are 7 digits. I'd be curious to see if it went to 10 digits if there were to be conflict of some sort..

OK - i discovered that i had gone thru golfnet.com thus i did not a have a GHIN number.  I joined a club in June and they set me up in USGA so i have a real GHIN number.  I entered the few rounds i played in 2019 due to injury and got all of my rounds for 2020 entered.  So now i have an updated GHIN.

I am playing terrible golf right now, like i haven't played this bad since i was in 7th grade, many many years ago.  That is due to having injuries the last 2 seasons that really limited my play and then this year i started off with a right shoulder injury.  

But i am having a blast playing golf, really am enjoying the game tremendously.  All have my kids have started playing ages 20 thru 27, that's 5 kids and all of their significant others are also taking up the game.  My wife has started playing again as well.  Add in a lot of my nieces and nephews that have started.  It really is so enjoyable to be arround.

thank you EVERYONE for the advice on how to work thru this.  Appreciate this site

You and your wife were pretty busy there for awhile.  OT, but I couldn't help but notice.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By WillieT ·

      26 Nov 24 -  It was not a record breaking round by any means, but rather a simple walking of the back nine today playing TBWB (two ball-worse ball) where the challenge is to play the worse of the two shots played - could be an errant drive from the woods, a tree knocked ball that is 100 yds farther back down the fairway, a nGIR ball as opposed to a GIR….the goal today was to stay no worse than bogie thru nine.  Managed to achieve that goal - bogied 7 holes with one dbl and one par to counter the dbl.  It’s about staying focused and not letting a bad shot or lie derail, but rather be an opportunity.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT ·

      Day 208 (26 Nov 24)- Opted to walk 9 today (was the back nine as they had a huge group going off the front) but instead of it being persimmons and blades, I had the regular gamers but made it a TBWB (two ball-worst ball) round.  This really challenges on several fronts - ball striking to be as consistent as possible, course management from non-optimal lies and keeping your head in it as it can be depressing to nail a shot on line-on target and the second rattles the trees right and it’s over 50 yards back and that’s the one you have to play.  The goal was to be no worse than bogie overall (+9).  Finished the round exactly on the number with some solid recoveries, no penalty strokes and only one 3-putt.
